New Season Ticket? Renew? Its like your about to get out of hospital after a torrid year of illness, and the doc asks if you would like to spend another year in suffering the same all over again!!!!! No Thank You Hibs, i.ll come back when things are better!!

ONE OF THE SYMPTOMS OF AN APPROACHING NERVOUS BREAKDOWN IS THE BELIEF THAT ONES WORK IS TERRIBLY IMPORTANT

Gonna phone up and see if the seat next to me that's usually empty is still available, and take my old mum along with us. She enjoys seeing what the managers and that are up to and might be her last chance to see Terry!

Frankly that is an appalling and insulting 'offer' and little short of disgraceful as it totally fails to recognise the predicament that Hibs are in with a two legged play off staring them in the face with the very real possibility of relegation to a league containing a debt free Hearts and 'Scotland's Shame 2012'

No sensible supporter is going to buy a season ticket not knowing which league he is paying for so the free ticket is a complete sham and £15 is no different to what Hibs do every year towards the end of the season. In fact last year it was just £10 for the last game v Aberdeen.

This time though it's anything but a meaningless end of season kickaboot. Hibs have to get something from this game very probably a win so it it is shaping up to be a one off cup final between the 2nd and 3rd worst teams in the league where the losers are just a two legged play off away from writing off £2 million-£3 million

Hibs should be trying to pack the place to the rafters at £10 or even £5 a ticket and hope the home atmosphere will somehow scrape the team over the line.

Instead this decision smacks of small conservative tired wee men trying to get away with the bare minimum by saving a few bob here and there while being completely and utterly out of touch with what the financial and football consequences of relegation entail.

Sure I've said this elsewhere, but if it comes down to the last game, they should be $#@!ing GIVING tickets away. My seat is long since bought and paid for. I wouldn't mind if every **** got in free and packed the place to the rafters. At the end of the day, I'd feel like I was getting more for my own money, as I really enjoy games with big crowds.

Obviously different circumstances, but i remember a Hibs - Dundee game got abandoned due to fog, i think late 70's (Slov Sam)? I think the crowd was around 7,000 odds. Anyway Hibs allowed both sets of fans in for free for the rearranged game on a midweek night and around 15,000 turned up. It made for a great atmosphere and Hibs won 3-0 that night.

The moral of the story aggie is related to the bit in bold.

I remember that game, in fact I remember both games. It was a midweek evening game and the haar swept in from the Firth of Forth and the game was abandoned just before half time and as you say the rearranged game a few weeks later became a free game for everyone.

Checking back it looks like this might have been Tuesday 25th March 1980 and the original crowd was given as 5,018 and the records say Hibs won 2-0 which must have been the replay score.

Often wondered what the Official crowd was at the second game but 12,000 rings a bell but you are right it was a cracking atmosphere totally unlike every other game in these bleak wilderness years.

I took my auntie along to the first game and treated her to the old centre stand. Game abandoned and they wouldnae let me into the centre stand for the replay!

I was at this game and I'm fairly certain it was in 1983? I remember because I was in Primary 7 and recall discussing it with my school teacher....
